I had the pleasure of photographing this cutie & his parents Andy & Regan last week. Charlie is nine months old & an active crawler! We all had a heck of a time trying to get him to stay in one place. It was hilarious!

Happy Earth Day everyone! I hope some of you were able to venture out w/ the thousands of other San Diegans to Balboa Park this past Sunday to celebrate Earth Day. This was the first time I've been to SD's Earth Fair, and yup, it's really as big as they say it is!

There were some cool environmentally friendly products out there that caught my eye. Like these cute bags by Green World Bags.

And this spaceship looking solar cooker at the SD Solar Cooking Club's booth. When I was there, one of the ladies had just baked a cake out there. Yummy! And yes, I did notice myself in the solar cooker.

Ok, that's all for my product endorsements. Well, one more. But this one's an artist, so it's different. Jan Lee Lumkin's art really caught my eye for the color & the content. (Whoa, I just sounded like an art critic just now.) My favorite was this piece:

But as you can see, she's got a lot more:

This tree is filled with leaves of promises.

I'll be watching out for you at the beach from now on Emma!

And last, but not least of cool things that made me go oooooh, was the Laughter Yoga booth. I guess they made me go heeheehee more than ooooooh though. Either way, these people were having a jolly good time at the fair! They have Laughter Circles every day of the week at different venues where they all get together & laugh! Funny, funny, funny!

One word for these two: GENUINE. So so so genuinely nice, sweet, & in love with each other. I absolutely loved photographing their wedding yesterday. Here are a couple till I catch up with everything else on my To Do List!

I love spring here in San Diego. There are tons of flowers blooming all over the place! All over the freeway I see daisies galore and surprisingly, wisteria too. Needless to say, I'm on cloud 9 right now whenever I go outside.

My friend Kristen had told me of how Fiesta Island has this HUGE field of daisies. Naturally, I had to investigate! Here's what I found:

It's insane how many daisies are out there. And they all just seem to want to say "hi!"

I ran into this lady who was taking a walk, and she took the words right out of my mouth when she said, "Beautiful. Just beautiful, isn't it? We are so blessed to be living here. "

I had to just lay down & daydream for a bit.

Don't want to sound to hippie-ish or anything, but thank you for bringing beauty into this world.

I had such a fabulous time getting to know Eleah & Lee over the course of about six hours on Saturday. They're college sweethearts from TCU where Lee pursued Eleah for two years because he knew she was the one for him. Persistence really pays off!

Being from the LA area (Pasadena), they wanted their session done at Venice Beach & I can see why. There is so much going on there.

Gotta rub that belly for good luck!

Ok, I just want to say this once because it's quite apparent, but Eleah is smokin' hot!!! She can take on Jessica Alba any day! And the cherry on top is that she's a sweetheart too.

This awesome wall is one of the reasons why they wanted Venice Beach. Much props to the artist!

Maybe Eleah should think about going to a casting call. She really knows how to make a character come alive!
